Products that do what VR.dev – a developer network for VR/XR/AR devs does

I built vr.dev as a lightweight network for people in the VR, XR, and AR development community to showcase demos, promote themselves, and find collaborators. It’s early, but usable for portfolios and discovery. Example profile: https://vr.dev/erik What’s live now: - Profiles with vr.dev/[username] URLs - Showcase a .glTF file - Resume/experience with industry-specific signals What’s coming: - Options for more showcases and supported asset types - Advanced searching on experience and skills - Closer integration with GitHub - Better discovery I’d love feedback on what…

    Proud to announce the product my wonderful coworkers and I have been building over the past 4 years: Spatial (https://www.spatial.io) – a 3D collaborative version of video chat in VR/AR. In Spatial you create a lifelike virtual avatar that gives you a sense of presence you don’t get from webcam feeds. You can also collaborate by drawing, uploading images/videos/3D models, screen sharing your desktop, and more. We’re available today on Oculus Quest (invite required, but we’re not limiting them), HoloLens, and MagicLeap, and also the web via a cloud-rendered spectator.…

    Hey HN, After GPT-3 created waves in the tech industry, a lot of AI tools were emerging and with that, some AI website builders But the results seemed way too generic to us. It felt like the developers were rushing to catch the wave instead of building a proper tool We took our time, did months of RnD and finally came up with something better than what others in the market are doing. It’s got better design output. While it’s still in beta, I wanted to show HN what we did. Will appreciate the feedback when you guys try it out. Here is the link to signup for the beta:…

    Hello everyone, I doubt this would be relevant to the kind of person who uses HN, but I thought I could share for some feedback. I built this site because there is a whole world of people who believe in new age spirituality and I am very much one of them. It is a site where you get the users gender their goals and their images and use AI and psychology to generate images of them in the process of achieving their goals. I am so deeply struggling with how to get this highly on Google. I don't even know if that is important anymore. What are your suggestions with distribution and getting in…

    Hey guys, I would really appreciate it if you could take a look at my new site that I have put into private beta this weekend. In summary it is a site for photographers, graphic designers and web designers to get private feedback on their work. There are plenty of sites out there were we can post our work and get it seen but sometimes you need to be able to get some feedback before having it on a public display. This is part 1 of the longer term plan. The beta has the basics to enable users to review each others work, the number of images are limited at the minute but I will be extending…

    Hello HN, I am building a devtool to understand existing codebases. The idea originates from my time at big tech as well as various attempts to get involved in open source projects. When I was in college I wanted to improve my coding skills by contributing to opensource projects. I would pickup a bug or feature request but I always found myself stuck at the very first step. I did not understood where and how to begin contributing. I once submitted a patch in firefox which was labeled "Good first issue" but that was still very handheld. The assigner told me exactly which files I need to…

    I’m an ex-YouTube infrastructure engineer iterating through building infra to support streaming high-quality AR experiences. Vlly allows you to build high-quality 3D/VR/AR into your applications with just a few lines of code - going from 0 to production 3D pipeline in minutes. I built Vlly as a simple API to take the pain out of 3D file conversion, optimization, and distribution. I'm around to get people started and to chat about current and future state of streaming media.

    Hi HN, I’m one of the devs behind StarDesk, a P2P-first remote desktop we’ve been building for ~1 year. We started this partly out of frustration: some popular RDP tools haven’t seen meaningful updates in a long time, and long-standing issues are often left unaddressed. As devs, we really dislike software that stagnates once it “works well enough”. StarDesk is our attempt to do it differently. What we focus on: -P2P by default (relay as fallback) -Low RTT + low jitter > chasing max bitrate -Encoder / input path tuned for real-time interaction -Modern E2EE (TLS/DTLS) UX-wise, setup…

    Hi HN! I've been working on Mesh, and I think it is time to it with you guys. Building on Cardano is difficult, because it lacks documentations and proper SDKs. This is where Mesh fills in this gap. With those beginner guides, is incredibly easy to get started, removing the pain of getting the simplest things to work. It is well engineered, the cloest "competitor" package size is over 10MB, while Mesh is less than 300KB, thus its light weight and your dApp will run fast. It is well documented and flexible, so you can build any dApp you can imagine. From the way the code is written to the way…

    Hey HN! First post btw I want to share a product we are developing right now. It's a thing to gather your data from LinkedIn, GitHub, StackOverflow (and a couple more things in the future) and we obviously use LLMs under the hood :D So the idea of using it is that you don't need to share 69 links and docs and can use one link (or download PDF) now. When you connect all the stuff you will see your profile with a radar chart, which represents your "domains". The next thing will be a section with ai-generated-summary-bio + section with things you're open to. Then a section with work experience…

    In each level, the goal is to climb to the top of the wall. Each wall has a unique layout of handholds, magnets, hooks, and elevators, and only one path to the top. The challenge is finding the right combination of moves to get you there. After each unsuccessful attempt, you can view the entire wall from afar to plan your route and strategize before trying again. I just released this on App Lab and would love to get some feedback and see how much interest there is in the concept. It’s listed at $3, but if anyone here wants a free key, just email me at [email protected]. I also set up…

    Hi All, I’ve been working on an open-source SDK to make collecting user feedback on your website less painful. Instead of wasting time on building your own feedback system and boring forms, my SDK lets users leave feedback directly on your website—with all the context devs actually need. Here’s what it currently does: Users can select any element on the page Auto-captures logs, metadata & screenshots Sends instant notifications (Slack, Discord, etc.) Lets you reward users → boosts engagement & conversions Gives users a tracking link → builds accountability & trust Self-host + customize the…

    Hello everyone, I'm excited to share the project vx.dev with you all. Inspired by the technical insights and experiences from v0.dev, we've now managed to seamlessly integrate the experience of converting text and images into UI code with the familiar GitHub issue/PR/code-review process. Additionally, this project offers further customization of prompts and the choice of suitable AI models. This integration not only enhances productivity but also opens up new possibilities for developers looking for flexible, budget-friendly, and customizable solutions.

    Introducing my latest project, We Build Landing Pages. https://theredbit.github.io/webuildlandingpages/ Excuse the blatant infancy of the project but I take 'releasing early and often' pretty seriously. The goals of this project are to... 1. Build a solid network of clients who need landing pages while learning how to run a business and to help earn funds to survive while I search for a job. Long story, I'm in a rough spot and I'm trying to get on my feet. 2. Build and release open-source tools and foster the growth of a community based on this work to help developers…

    Hi HN, I’ve been working the past year on something called Prototyper , and today we’re opening up the new version. The motivation is simple: whenever I built products in the past, I noticed the best ideas came after the “first version.” You try something, it feels wrong, you change it, repeat. Most tools make that painful. Prototyper is my attempt to make that loop natural—so you can explore ideas quickly instead of forcing them through a rigid workflow. This release includes: instant updates (no compile/refresh lag) simplified UI (months spent just removing steps) responsive by…
